It said it engages in political violence and that members espouse misogynistic, Islamophobic, anti-Semitic, anti-immigrant and white supremacist ideologies.

Canada listed the Proud Boys as a terrorist group. Australia is under pressure to do the same'I really hope and I really pray that … Australian politicians and American politicians and others follow Canada's lead in this matter.' Proud Wankers.
